Dender - Cercle Brugge predictions

Kickoff starts at 16:00 on 18/01/2025 played @ Van Roystadion

Though Dender definitely have a shot at winning this match, they’ll need to work for it. Cercle Brugge are somewhat stronger, but the home-field advantage may be what the hosts need to shift the balance in their favour.

Cercle Brugge are regarded as favourites, but that doesn’t mean they can relax. With an almost negligible difference in the perceived strength of these two teams, sub-standard play is a recipe for disaster.

Dender’s previous Pro League fixture could have gone either way and it’s fair to assume they were happy to have gotten a point from a difficult game. A tied first half and a Gent draw, in the end, is the result everybody will have been happy with.

It would be safe to say that Cercle Brugge were the underdogs in the previous round. The odds implied the game could have gone either way, but they were playing as the home team and the predictions weren’t too optimistic. However, they went into halftime with a lead and transitioned it into a 1:0 home win.

Dender have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

Cercle Brugge hadn’t conceded a single goal over the course of their latest 3 home games. Even though they’ll be playing as visitors this time around, Both Teams to Score and Home Win bets don’t seem like a good idea for the time being.

The match these two teams played earlier in the season ended in a draw. Overall, Dender have a lot more reason to feel happy about that, being the underdogs in the matchup.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Lennard Hens, Danny Fofana, Malcolm Viltard have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

The visiting team’s position as favourites is beyond question, especially with their whole roster at hand. They’ve had no recent injuries heading into the match at Dender,

Our advice is to go for an Under 2.5 Goals market, though it was likely not your first instinct. While the probability is rather low compared to what you’re used to from Under 2.5 bets, it compares favourably to the 1.82 odds offered by Pncl.

Betting tip (stake: 6/10): Under 2,5 1.82 at Pncl
